ANTI-TRUST TIGHT RENEWED
Cases Against Standard Oil and
Tobacco Combine to Be Pushed.
TO BE TAKEN UP FOR SECOND TIME
alt Aanlnnt ntandard Oil Attracta
Moat Attention, Althoaa.li It la
tn Mr Aranrrf After the
Tobacco ( air.
WASHINQTON. Jan. 1. rrosecutlons by
the government, designed to accomplish
the dissolution of "Standard Oil" and of
Hie American Tobacco organizations, em
bodying the greatest "anti-trust" fight of
the generation, will he taken up for the
second time by the supreme court nf the
T'nlted States at the beginning of Its work
for the new year. Continuing Its consid
eration of affair, of government, the court
will Immediately afterwards give Its at
tention to the constitutionality of the cor
poration tax provision, of the Payne-Ald-rich
tariff act.
All three case, attracted world-wide at
tention when first presented to the court
about a year ago. With the object of pro
curing consideration by a full bench, they
were set' for reargumopt on January S.
Intervening .case, w-jr'g.uae a delay until
probably January 5. Whi1t Is believed' thn
arguments In the Tobacco- case will begin.
The Standard Oil and the corporation tax
arguments will follow. About three day.
will be required for each.
The Standard Oil and Tobacco cases put
the Sherman anti-trust law to the most
crucial test to which it has been subjected
during the twenty years of Its existence.
The corporation tax case, place on trial
the power of the federal government over
corporations. The contention has been
' made that If the Standard Oil and the
Tobacco organizations are dissolved the
government will be forced to license cor
porations In order to allow legitimate busi
ness to be carried on. The corporation tax
decision may define the power of the fed
eral government over corporations ao as
to guide this proposed subsequent legisla
tion. Incidentally, about $25,000,000 an
nually In taxe. depend upon the decision.
oil nlt Moat Important.
Although the Tobacco cane Is to be ar
gued first, the Standard OH suit has at
tracted more attention. Attorney General
Wlckersham has referred to the Standard
Oil case a. probably the most Important
that ever came before the court.
The Standard Oil suit was Instituted In
1906 ln the circuit court of the United States
of the Eastern Judicial district of Missouri.
I The federal government was the complaln-
S'tm nnrtv. It claimed that the Standard Oil
j company of New Jersey, as a holding com
I pany, acquired since 1W and held by direct
? stork nunernhln. slxtv-five companies.
' These sixty-five, It wan alleged, owned the
stock of forty-nine other companies, mak
ing a total of 114 companies. The govern
ment asked that this organization be dls-'
solved under the Sherman anti-trust law.
A year waa taken by the four Judge. In
the circuit court to pas. on the case. Ry
unanimous agreement, a decree was entered
by the court dissolving the -organization
both because It wan In "restraint of Inter
state commerce" and because It was "at
tempting to monopolize." Pefore the de
cree became effective an appeal carried the
case to the supreme court.
The tobacco case waa Instituted ln 1907
In the circuit court of the I'nlted Stute
for the Southern district of New York. The
government here. too. waa the complaining
party. Allle. In the various branches of the
tobacco business, with combined asset,
of more than 4)0,OM.Oi0. constituted the or
ganization which the government .ought to
have the court dissolve.
The four Judge, each rendered .eparate
oplniona In the tobacco case, but three of
them united in a decree, holding many of
the coriKiratlon. had entered Into a com
bination "In restraint of trade" In vlolatinn
of the first section of the StiTinan anti
trust act. These three decreed the disso
lution of this combination, other corpora
tions. Including the I'nlted Cluar Stores
company, the Imperial Tobacco company
and the Hrltu.h-AmerUan Tobacco company
were found not to be In the combination.
Vonr o rrr held to be "inonol.nl 111 llg' ' III

a picket fence, a woman fatally hurt and
another was scoiclii'il In a fire that fol
lowed an explosion in their home here to

been a black hand attack.
The house wan occupied by Mr. and Mrs.
Speer on the ground floor and Mrs. Clark
and her daughter on the top floor. They
had as boarders Edward Hammond and
his sister, Mary and Charles Roshall. an
employe In a silk mill.

under a rear stairway. Hut Boshall could
not manage to get out. He was found dead
when the firemen entered after the flames
had been subdued.
Mrs. Clark tiled to ' lead her blind
daughter. Florence, to the stairway, but
found the girl could not grope her way
down, and they returned to their rooms.
There they found Hammond, who with
Mrs. Clark, took the hands of the girl
and told her to climb out of the window,
while they lowered her as near the ground
aa possible. But the blind girl dropped
on the picket fence Just at the ide of
the house, killing her. Mrs. Clark Jumped
and received fatal Injuries.
Army Man Uses Alum
to Aid Test; No Test
Friend Advises Captain Rnssell to Use
Alum and Alcohol on Feet He
Can't Walk.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. (Special Tele
gramsCaptain Robert I Russell, Judge
advocate general of the navy, Is confined
to his home with a pair of very sore feet,
but when he Is able to be about there Is
likely to be trouble for that obliging friend
who prescribed an easy means of making
the fifty-mile physical test prescribed by
navy regulation, an agreeable one.
"By the simple application of a little
alum and alcohol to the feet," this friend
told him, "the feet become hardened, so
that it Is the rarest pleasure to walk and
walk. When you have traveled fifty miles
you want to start over again and walk
another fifty miles. Alum and alcohol are
the walker', delight."

GRAZING IN NATIONAL FORESTS
Court in New Mexico Upholds Author
ity of Secretary of Agriculture.
MISAPPREHENSION OF STOCKMEN
Dcelalon nf Supreme I onrl that
Illegal t.raalnar la nt Crime
linen Nn( Bar Civil
nltn.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 1. -(Special. )-Tho
The authority of the secretary of agricul
ture to prevent the grazing of live stock
on the national forests without a permit
has been sustained In New Mexico by ac
tion of the federal courts In three cases
In which the defendants had caused or
permitted stock to trenpasn upon the Alamo
fnrent In defiance of the regulations
Recaune of the belief w hlch has been cur-
rent among stockmen of some localities
during the last year that the regulations
of the secretary of agriculture, with regard
to grazing on the national forests are un
enforceable, the New Mexico cane, are re
garded by official, of the Iepartment of
Agriculture as particularly timely and valu
able. The recent disposition to question
the validity of the regulation, has evi
dently been due to the entirely natural de-
sire of the gtocfcmen to assert what fhey'lotig thelr"'rqutesiiivl the Chicago rr
supposed, though mistakenly, to he their Northwestern complain, of (now drifts two

materially, and to promote a better under
standing of the legal right, of the depart
ment. Baala of Misapprehension.
The misconception which ha. led the
stockmen to suppose they might graze their
stock on the national forest without tak-
Ing out a permit and paying the grazing
fee waa due to the decision rendered by the
supreme' court of the United States last
March, affirming a decision of the I'nlted
States district court for the southern dis
trict of California, by Judge Wellborn,
that violation of the grazing regulations In
not punishable a. a crime. This decision
of the supreme court, however, was by an
even division of the Justices, and, therefore.
did not decide the general question one
way or the other, but merely affirmed the
decision of the lower court In the particu
lar case. The supreme court has granted
a rehearing of the caae. In order that the
question may be passed upon by a full
bench and authoritatively settled, and this
rehearing will soon take place. But the
authority of thg secretary to prevent grat
ing, except ln accordance with his regula
tions, does not, It Is pointed out, depend
upon affirmation of the power of the gov
ernment to punish violation of the regula
tion as a crime. Thl. I. made clear by the
action In two of the New Mexico case.;
while the third case Illustrates the fact
that the affirmation of Judge Wellborn',
decision by tha supreme court ha. no
binding force In case, other than the par
ticular one then before the court.
Pnnltlve Damages Aaaeaaed.
In the cane, of Bam Cope and S. O. Cope,
defendants, and of O. W, Jemlgan, de
fendant. Injunction, were granted by the
federal district court to prevent the con
tinued grazing of stock owned by the de
fendant, upon the national forests. The
ground upon which these Injunctions were
granted was not the power of the gov
ernment to punish violators of the regu
lation, through criminal procedure, but
was tha light of the government to bring
civil action against th owners of stock
which tresirass upon the property of the
government. In the Cop case punitive
damages were Imposed by the court fur
wilful tresiias. In addition to an award of
fii for actual damage, sustained The
amount of the actual damage waa deter
mined by tha finding cf the court-that 1;
taiua nr inu grazing pnvllc.' In the
Alamo national forest waa fl Lu per .r
